What he offers you

Much vaunted as a comic for intellectuals, Robin Ince has a strong, traditional, stand-up approach which often goes on warped, but hilarious, diversions before returning to more sharp and polished observational material. He'll make you laugh, and just might make you think.

How he presents

Affable, engaging and confident Robin provides audiences with the perfect opportunity to see an eclectic mix of comedy. He is incredibly light and entertaining, but with some very smart insights into the media and popular culture, incorporating little bits of his everyday experience. With an intellectual, but irate style, brilliant observations and quick wit, he is truly engaging, surprising, and funny.

Languages

He presents in English.
